Some of the most absurd aspects:
1. There was one round toward the middle where Floyd landed about 60% of his punches (really, he did that almost every round, but this one was the highest yet). During this round, while Floyd was basically landing at will and Oscar was doing nothing, Manny Steward keeps saying "but now I think Oscar's turned it around and it's Floyd that's having trouble landing anything." Ridiculous.
2. A couple rounds later, in a round that Floyd outlanded Oscar by a 3-1 ratio, and even threw more than Oscar, Lampley closes the round by saying "it'll be interesting to see how they score that one."
3. The standard Lampley going crazy over ODH punches that didn't even come close to landing. And saying absolutely nothing when Floyd landed flush shots (the only flush shots in the entire fight, mind you).
4. Old Larry Merchant constantly asking (rhetorically), "but Manny, do you think it's a good idea to base your whole fightplan on the other guy getting tired? The fight is happening NOW." As if Floyd wasn't clearly winning "NOW" anyway.
5. Then the most obvious rematch-marketing ploy of them all (other than managing to get that one judge to actually score the fight for Oscar ::**), they get crazy Floyd Sr. up there AGAIN at the end so he can spew that incomprehensible nonsense about how "if you score it on a point system, you have to give it to Oscar." Floyd outlanded Oscar in almost every single round, out-power punched him in every single round, and landed at more than double Oscar's connect rate -- so explain what that meant. Anyway, they used that interview as a direct segue into the "So, will we get a rematch?" talk.
Huge respect to Max Kellerman for ditching the HBO selling-line and telling it like it is. That was a 117-111 fight without question.
CC! thats well said bro!
couldnt have said it better myself bro
Re: That was the MOST BIASED HBO coverage I've EVER seen
i have to admit it was rather LOUD in the sports bar so i didnt actually hear was the commentators was saying, but if they were as ignorant as the people in the bar and getting happy when oscar was flurrying into the AIR then yeah sounds bad. ill have to hear what they were saying when i watch the replay.

I would be impressed with Kellerman if he commentated at a high school football game. World Championship Boxing event featuring two top fighters. No.

Re: That was the MOST BIASED HBO coverage I've EVER seen
I agree with you on the Manny Steward comments...sometimes I wonder if he is actually watchin the fight or eating food and reading some pre made bullet points.

Most of Fraud's punches were being blocked by De La Hoya. There was no bloody lip, no black eyes, no bloody nose. Floyd is applauded when he makes people miss. His balls are licked up and down by Fraud fans. But when Oscar blocks all those punches from Floyd, they count them and claim how great Floyd is.
Floyd finally steps in with a world class fighter and was unable to humilite him.
Floyd did not win a UD. Oscar is no bum like some of the other clowns he cherry picked to get where he is.
Shane can beat PBF.
Floyd takes one big fight and then quits?
What a punk.
His fans have the same punk mentality.
Birds of a feather suck together.
Floyd is not as great as people make him out to be.
Against bum's anyone can look spectacular, but against good opposition, he does not have his way. I don't think Floyd did enough to earn that title. Like Oscar said, to be the man you have to beat the man and Floyd did no beating. If Oscar had not pressed this fight and just as he said there would be no fight.
He was given a gift against Castillo and he was given a gift against ODLH.
Floyd has been given two free belts. We know he did not deserved them.
Floyd is a fake.
What happend to all that shiet he was saying?
I am going to make you my biatch!
I am going to make you say my name and call me pretty!
Who the phuk does Floyd think he is? Ali?
LMAO.
Floyd is not fit to wash Ali's shietty underware.
Now Floyd retires because the competion is getting better.
Dont give that chump no gift belts. Take him to see the wizard of Oz and give him a pair of balls and a heart! Two things he lacks. Oh yea, and get him a personality and some speech lessons.

Because Oscar was fighting his fight during those close rounds and the aggressor
Oscar didn't LAND anything! That's like saying Sam Soliman beat Winky Wright.
oscar didnt land anything??? wow, what fight were u watching? u must be on some good sh8t while making love to a bottle of corona

Oscar didn't LAND anything!
FLOYD WASNT LANDING EITHER
Yes he was. He landed at over 50% the ENTIRE FIGHT. Watch it again. He was very accurate.
yea he was very accurately hitting Oscar's gloves and i swear to god Mayweather could be a tri athlete, he can box, run, and jump, did you see the way he would jump back into the rope to not get hit

You were clearly fooled by Jim Lampley's Oscar nut-hugging and the cheers of Oscar's nut-hugging fans sitting way up in Row 350 at the MGM grand. Oscar didn't land shit. He landed little over 100 punches, none of them flush. Floyd landed more than TWICE that many, including several flush hooks on Oscar's face. Check the stats. They support my view of the fight, not yours.
Re: That was the MOST BIASED HBO coverage I've EVER seen
Manny flip fllops like a pancake in hot butter. Horiffic commentator but great trainer.

You have no idea what you're talking about.
